Rotherham

He was leading scorer for Rotherham United F.C. during the 1996–97 season, prior to moving to Plymouth Argyle F.C. in 1997.[1]

International career

He was a member of the Saint Lucia national team from 1992 to 2004.

Coaching career

After his retirement in December 2009 began his coaching career as Assistant coach of his former Saint Lucia national team Head coach Stuart Charles Fevrier by W Connection.[2]
